The genetic implication for preceding generations of the prenatal diagnosis of interrupted aortic arch in association with unsuspected DiGeorge anomaly
1995
Abstract We present a case of prenatally diagnosed interrupted aortic arch with a ventricular septal defect in the presence of maternal congenital heart disease, which led to the detection of segmental monosomy of chromosome 22q11.2 in both patients. The implications of detecting a microdeletion and the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to prenatal diagnosis and counseling are discussed.
